  • Crust:
  • 1 cup pecans, ground or finely chopped
  • ½ cup walnuts, ground or finely chopped
  • ¾ cup almond meal or ground flaxseed
  • 1 egg white
  • 3 Tbsp butter, melted (coconut oil works as well)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼-1/3 cup honey
  • CHEESECAKE:
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed)
  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 (8-ounce) packages FULL-FAT cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg or ginger
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine ground pecans, walnuts, almond meal, cinnamon, and mix.
  3. Add egg white, melted butter and honey.
  4. Mix until the crust looks even and consistent.
  5. Place the crust in an even layer on the bottom of an eight inch cheesecake pan (or an 8 x 11 inch pan for bars).
  6. Bake for 7-10 minutes or until the crust in nice and golden. Cool completely.
  7. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat ¼ cup softened butter and the cream cheese until smooth. Scrape down the sides of the mixer.
  8. Add blueberries and mix to combine.
  9. Add vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt and combine until smooth.
  10. Reduce speed to medium low and add powdered sugar ¼ cup at a time; beat until smooth.
  11. Transfer mixture to prepared pan, spreading it out evenly over the crust.
  12. Cover and chill until set, about 2 hours, or overnight (we couldn’t wait this long and it was still delicious).
  13. Cut into slices and serve.
